Compact period home with canal garden, ideal for first-time buyers.
Two double bedrooms and cosy lounge with feature fireplace
A late-Victorian mid-terrace cottage offering a compact, characterful home in Malkins Bank. The living space is cosy with a feature-style fireplace, and the property benefits from a modern fitted kitchen and bathroom, plus two double bedrooms. The manageable rear garden backs onto the canal, providing a peaceful waterside aspect and direct countryside feel.
Practical strengths include freehold tenure, no onward chain, mains gas central heating, double glazing (installed before 2002) and very low local crime. The property’s small footprint (approximately 528 sq ft) and on-street parking make it well suited to first-time buyers or downsizers seeking an affordable rural village home; it will also appeal to investors after a steady rental or short-stay let.
Important considerations: the cottage is sold at public auction on 20 October 2025, and a buyer’s administration fee (£1,800 inc VAT) applies. Walls are original solid brick with no retrofit insulation assumed, and broadband speeds are slow — relevant if you need modern home-working connectivity. View the legal pack and confirm any auction conditions before bidding.
Overall this is a charming, small riverside cottage that delivers countryside character and convenience at an entry-level price, but bidders should budget for potential improvement works and allow time to complete auction purchase formalities.
